MENTORS
A teammate like no other
We believe athletes are inspirational role models. The positivity of their can-do, never quit attitude could benefit us all. We provide specialist training to enable these sportspeople to harness their unique skillset and pass it on to others, working directly with young people and also with our corporate partners. It’s a winning combination which gets incredible results.

Kelly’s Legacy
Kelly wanted to create a legacy from her athletics career that would benefit young people, believing every child needs a hero – someone to look up to and be inspired by. When she founded the charity it was the unstoppable positive attitude that she saw throughout sport that she wanted to harness.
Beyond Sport
As well as their sporting achievements, our athlete mentor’s back stories are both relatable and inspirational for young people. Ordinary people, from ordinary backgrounds who have achieved so much – providing positive role models and helping young people to develop their own winning mind-set.
Channelling the
champion mindset
The specialist training our athletes receive is key to transforming them from sportsperson to mentor. Our athlete transition programme, More than Medals, ensures the skills that made them a champion in their sport, enable them to become a champion of the young people they work with.
